I was going through my gyaru wardrobe one day when I realised just how much it has expanded over the past year or two. It’s crazy! It made me think about all of the money I spent and I sincerely apologise, Bank, for breaking you repeatedly. I promise I won’t spend as much over the next week year or so! This brought me back to my gyaru wardrobe post that I wrote back in 2012 ♡ link ♡ so I think it’s time that I update it and see where my style has taken me!
On Wednesday I met up with my bby Pixie! It has been so long since I last saw her – like, May? – and I’ve missed her so much!
We decided to meet up early but I woke up to my eye being as swollen as ever! ;_; I knew I shouldn’t have rubbed it when I was tired the previous night… Luckily I bought a medical eye patch to cover it because there was no way that I wasn’t going to wear makeup.
I wish I realised just how big the eye patch was before I was doing my makeup… Because when I had finished and unwrapped it from its packaging I was starting to panic. It was huge! Like it covered all of my face! I had to sew it in half and work my magic so that I could actually see out of the other eye. But it was okay in the end and I started to feel better about it ^^
I went for a preppy d.i.a look and wore this shirt that I’ve had for ages but never really wore it. I need to wear it more often because it’s super pretty!
Booo this sucks ;_;
While I was getting ready I took advantage of my situation and snapped a make/no-make face shot! Isn’t gyaru makeup so amazing? What a difference it makes! *3*
I was in a rush so I wasn’t able to take a decent outfit picture, so a mirror shot would have to do!
Pixie took me to a nice Japanese restaurant down in . I was adventurous and tried out new dishes! I wasn’t too keen on the onigiri though… At least I now know what it tastes like, and can avoid it in future. The teriyaki beef was delicious though but I forgot to take a photo of it! ;_;
Selfies at the restaurant tehehe~ Pixie is so cute!
After our meal Pixie presented me with a little surprise: a seifuku set from her store Pixie Bunny! Oh my gosh I fell in love with it, the colour is absolutely beautiful! I’ve always wanted to do kogal again and the colour is so beautiful! Thank you so much cutie <3
Then we did some shopping! I was silently weeping because I found a really pretty coat in Miss Selfridge but it was £84 and my student discount expired the previous day. D’oh! But I did manage to buy some posh lipstick from Illamasqua. It’s not a shade that I’m used to but I liked it!
After that we headed home~ We’ve already arranged our next meet and I can’t wait to see her again! ♡
Oh and before I go… Pixie has brought out the love for himekaji in me again >///< I really want to have another go at it but I haven’t got the autumn wardrobe for it apart from the brown floral dress from Kawaii Gyaru Shop. It’s so sad ;_; So I’ve made a little himekaji wishlist of the things that would go with what I already have, as I need to save money at the same time. Most of these items were relatively cheap!
To also help me build my himekaji wardrobe slowly I’m going back by a few years and going to start the “points system” so that I’m working to gain points/goodies! I wrote about it in a post here.
My friend interviewed me yesterday about online identities and Gyaru >///< I felt so special ’cause she chose me to be her case study~ So I decided to doll up for it! At first I didn’t know what to do with my hair so I just straightened it ’cause I’m a lazy bum my hair skills aren’t great ;_; I wanted to wear my new top that I bought from the uber-amazing Monica Tang a few days ago *_*
My make~ I wanted to wear my lens in this time! :3
D.I.A top, reveal shorts, DIY belt, socks from Peacocks and shoes from
Dorothy Perkins.
Also… I’VE BEEN BLOGGING FOR OVER A YEAR.
I totally didn’t realise! I knew I’ve been blogging around this time but I completely forgot about it ;_;
But yes, I’ve been on this blog for over a year now! <3
My first post was 10th March 2011 and this was my first picture:
How much I’ve changed o_O It’s so crazy… Don’t really like the sweet and casual style anymore lololol. I go for the more dramatic and dark stuff now~ And I think it suits me a lot more ^^ I feel kinda’ lazy doing light makeup OTL.
So I’d like to thank you guys for your undying support, comments, follow… Thank you so much ;_; <3 You guys mean the world to me <3 I couldn’t have made it this far without you ! <3
